How many bolts hold the transmission to the engine in a 1985 2 wheel drive S10?

I have a 1985 Chevy S10 with a locked up engine i was wondering how many bolts hold the transmission to it. It is a 2.5 liter with an automatic transmission.|||As I recall, there are six that hold the bell housing to the block. The two at the very top are a pain. You need to remove the transmission cross member and allow the tail shaft to drop, then with a long extension remove the top bolts.





There are also 5 (I think) bolts that hold the flex plate (flywheel) to the torque converter. If you can't rotate the engine, you will have to pull it with the converter still bolted up. once out, you can get it off.





It is probably easier in your case to pull the engine/transmission out as an assembly.
